Mikel Arteta confirms injury boost ahead of Brighton clash
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has confirmed an injury boost for the Gunners ahead of the Premier League clash against Brighton & Hove Albion at the Amex Stadium tomorrow.
The Gunners have found form over the last few weeks. They have won three league games on the bounce and will be aiming for another three points against the Seagulls on the road.
Ahead of the game, Arteta has confirmed that Kai Havertz should be fit to play, having recovered from an illness which kept him out for the London derby against Brentford in midweek.
Havertz has been in good form for the Gunners this term with 12 goals to his name. Gabriel Jesus is the undisputed striker at the moment with his sparkling scoring run and Havertz could feature in midfield.
Mikel Merino got the nod in the number eight role against the Bees. Havertz could be reinstated in the position for tomorrow's late kick-off.
Arsenal are six points behind leaders Liverpool, who have a game in hand against Everton. The Gunners have to beat Brighton to stay in the title race.
